The Father's Day

What an eventful day! Jacob gave his first talk in Primary and did a great job repeating what I whispered in his ear. We practiced a few times before hand so he would not whisper when I did. The pulpit was too tall and he couldn't peek over it so I put my foot on the stool and he sat on my knee while I held up the pictures and he spoke into the microphone. He felt like such a big boy. Oh, he also had his first day at church with underwear and he stayed dry.





Jacob and I made a tie for his dad for father's day. He had a very hard time keeping it a secret and kept talking about it. Max would go "SHHHHHH" and "Nooooo don't tell me!!" But it just made Jacob mad most of the time. This morning I went into Jacob's room to have him help me wrap dad's gift. He insisted on showing dad the tie before we wrapped it and got very angry when I tried to explain that we needed to wrap it first. He grabbed the tie and ran into the bathroom where dad was sitting on the toilet and threw the tie at him, said "Happy Father's Day" and ran away. Then he ran back and grabbed the tie and insisted that we wrap it. He then gave his gift and card to dad (still on the throne) and told him to open it. What a unique father's day. Poor dad :) His tie had Jacob's handprint and I painted on

Max's request for dinner was brats and mashed potatoes. Easy! We didn't get to eat until 8:30pm because he decided to take a 4 hour nap and Jacob also fell asleep at 5:30pm. I made a coconut cake but it was not my best. I do know how I can make it better next time, though.
